Parking Distance Warning
(Reverse/Forward) System
Precautions
• Forward/Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system may not operate
consistently in some circum-
stances depending on the speed of
the vehicle and the shapes of the
objects detected.
• Forward/Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system may malfunction if
the vehicle bumper height or sen-
sor installation has been modified
or damaged. Any non-factory
installed equipment or accessories
may also interfere with the sensor
performance.
• The sensor may not recognize
objects less than 12 in. (30 cm)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.
• When the sensor is blocked with
snow, dirt, debris, or ice, the sys-
tem may be inoperative until the
snow or ice melts, or the debris is
removed. Use a soft cloth to wipe
debris away from the sensor.
• Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could occur.
• Do not spray the sensors or its sur-
rounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Doing so may
cause the sensors to fail to operate
normally.

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
ABS is an electronic braking system
that helps prevent a braking skid.
ABS allows the driver to steer and
brake at the same time.
Using ABS
To obtain the maximum benefit from
your ABS in an emergency situation,
do not attempt to modulate your
brake pressure and do not try to
pump your brakes. Depress your
brake pedal as hard as possible.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear sounds from
the brakes, or feel a corresponding
sensation in the brake pedal. This is
normal and it means your ABS is
active.
ABS does not reduce the time or dis-
tance it takes to stop the vehicle.
Always maintain a safe distance from
the vehicle in front of you.
ABS will not prevent a skid that
results from sudden changes in
direction, such as trying to take a
corner too fast or making a sudden
lane change. Always drive at a safe
speed for the road and weather con-
ditions.
ABS cannot prevent a loss of stabili-
ty. Always steer moderately when
braking hard. Severe or sharp steer-
ing wheel movement can still cause
your vehicle to veer into oncoming
traffic or off the road.
On loose or uneven road surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake sys-
tem may result in a longer stopping
distance than for vehicles equipped
with a conventional brake system. An Anti-Lock Braking System
or an Electronic Stability
Control system will not prevent
accidents due to improper or
dangerous driving maneuvers.
Even though vehicle control is
improved during emergency
braking, always maintain a safe
distance between you and
objects ahead of you. Vehicle
speeds should always be
reduced during extreme road
conditions. The braking dis-
tance for vehicles equipped
with ABS or ESC may be longer
than for those without these
systems in the following road
conditions.
Drive your vehicle at reduced
speeds during the following
conditions:
• Rough, gravel or snow-cov-
ered roads.
• On roads where the road sur-
face is pitted or has different
surface height.
• Tire chains are installed on
your vehicle.
The safety features of an ABS
or ESC equipped vehicle should
not be tested by high speed
driving or cornering. This could
endanger the safety of yourself
or others.

Driving your vehicle
Limitations of the System
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations because the system
may not detect other vehicles or
objects in certain circumstances:
• When a trailer or carrier is
installed.

weather such as heavy rain or
snow.
• The sensor is covered with rain,
snow, mud, etc.

is located is covered with a foreign
object such as a bumper sticker, a
bumper guard, a bike rack, etc.
• The rear bumper is damaged, or
the sensor is out of the original
default position.

higher due to heavy loading in a
trunk, abnormal tire pressure, etc.
• When the temperature of the rear
bumper is high.
• When the sensors are blocked by
other vehicles, walls or parking-lot
pillars.
• The vehicle is driven on a curved
road.

eral ground) abnormally contains
metallic components (i.e. possibly
due to subway construction).

vehicle, such as a guardrail.
• While going down or up a steep
road where the height of the lane is
different.• Driving on a narrow road where
trees or grass or overgrown.

sensor does not detect another
vehicle or structure for an extended
period of time.
• Driving on a wet road.

guardrail or wall is in double struc-
ture.

same time as the vehicle next to
you and has accelerated.

moves two lanes away from you
OR when the vehicle two lanes
away moves to the next lane from
you.

Driving your vehicle
• Driving where the road is merg-
ing/dividing
The BCW and BCA systems may
not operate properly when driving
where the road is merging/dividing.
In certain instances, the system
may not detect the vehicle in the
next lane.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, while driving.
• Driving on a slope
The BCW and BCA systems may
not operate properly when driving
on a slope. In certain instances the
system may not detect the vehicle
in the next lane.
Also, in certain instances, the sys-
tem may recognize the ground or
structures.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, while driving.• Driving where the heights of the
lanes are different
The BCW and BCA systems may
not operate properly when driving
where the heights of the lanes are
different.
In certain instances, the system
may not detect the vehicle on a
road with different lane heights (i.e.
underpass joining section, grade
separated intersections, etc.).
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, while driving.

• Always look out for pedestrians
when your vehicle is maintaining a
distance with the vehicle ahead.
• Always be cautious for vehicles
with higher height or vehicles car-
rying loads that sticks out from the
back of the vehicle.When using the Smart Cruise
Control take the following pre-
cautions:
• If an emergency stop is nec-
essary, you must apply the
brakes. The smart cruise con-
trol system cannot guarantee
the stop for every emergency
situation.
• Keep a safe distance according
to road conditions and vehicle
speed. If the vehicle to vehicle
distance is too close during a
high-speed driving, a serious
collision may result.
• Always maintain sufficient
braking distance and deceler-
ate your vehicle by applying the
brakes if necessary.
• The Smart Cruise Control sys-
tem cannot recognize a
stopped vehicle, pedestrians or
an oncoming vehicle. Always
look ahead cautiously to pre-
vent unexpected and sudden
situations from occurring.
• Vehicles moving in front of you
with a frequent lane change
may cause a delay in the sys-
tem's reaction or may cause the
system to react to a vehicle
actually in an adjacent lane.
Always drive cautiously to pre-
vent unexpected and sudden
situations from occurring.
• Always be aware of the select-
ed speed and vehicle to vehicle
distance. The driver should not
solely rely on the system but
always pay attention to driving
conditions and control your
vehicle speed.
